 * I’ve searched through forums but cannot find similar topic:
 * I’ve upgraded to WP 2.7 B3 and all the comments, written in Cyrillic are with
   very strange encoding. Strange is that when I try to edit them, I can read everything
   in the admin panel. Same problem with new comments.
 * [Here is the link](http://blog.zabunov.be/2008/11/19/354.html). It’s written 
   in bulgarian, but you can still see the problems with the comments.

 * Little update: Everything is fine with the text in the RSS stream. I don’t know
   if it’s important. Probably there is something in comments.php or single.php..
   I don’t know, but I’ll appreciate every help!

 * And one more update: On fresh installation of the latest beta of WP 2.7, Cyrillic
   in comments seems to be fine. Please, if someone have an idea how to fix my older
   comments, I will really appreciate it! I know it’s not a good idea to install
   beta versions over working finals of previous versions, but.. it’s too late now
   and I really would like to have my comments back and readable.
 * P.S. On different themes, there are some problems with encoding even in the sidebar.

 * Hi again!
 * I don’t want to be boring, but I really need some help. Or at least some ideas
   how to fix this problem. I am updating to every nightly build, but still can’t
   resolve this strange problem. Thank you in advance!

 * Finally! I found the “fix”, although I am not sure what exactly was the problem.
   I had 3 unupdated plugins: WP-Stats, Yet Another Related Posts Plugin and Search
   Everything. I will search through changelogs, but I assume that either YARPP 
   or Search Everything was the reason for the encoding problems. Now everything
   seems to works fine!
